Humans waging 'suicidal war' on nature - UN chief Antonio Guterres 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-55147647

"Our planet is broken," the Secretary General of the United Nations, Antonio Guterres, will warn on Wednesday.

Humanity is waging what he will describe as a "suicidal" war on the natural world.

"Nature always strikes back, and is doing so with gathering force and fury," he will tell a BBC special event on the environment.

Mr Guterres wants to put tackling climate change at the heart of the UN's global mission.

In a speech entitled State of the Planet, he will announce that its "central objective" next year will be to build a global coalition around the need to reduce emissions to net zero.

Net zero refers to cutting greenhouse gas emissions as far as possible and balancing any further releases by removing an equivalent amount from the atmosphere.

Mr Guterres will say that every country, city, financial institution and company "should adopt plans for a transition to net zero emissions by 2050". In his view, they will also need to take decisive action now to put themselves on the path towards achieving this vision.

The objective, says the UN secretary general, will be to cut global emissions by 45% by 2030 compared with 2010 levels.

PEOPLE PESSIMISTIC ABOUT GENERATING CHILDREN! GLOBAL WARMING WOULD BE THE VILLAIN!!!

POPULATION CONTROL

One of the four basic principles of sustainability (the other three are: Productivity, Biogeocycling, Biodiversity).

Some people, concentrated in the so-called "developed countries", are beginning to admit that they no longer want to bear children, fearing an apocalyptic climate! For global warming. Opinion poll result with 600 people.

The world's population was estimated to reach 7.8 billion in July 2020. The United Nations estimates that the human population will reach up to 11.2 billion in 2100.

With the current criteria of distribution of resources that provide all human beings, good quality of life, environmental... I believe that admitting an apocalypse, perhaps in unpredictable form, is not exacerbated pessimism!
